Re: Ultimate UHD Drives Flashing Guide Updated 2023

Hi I am from India, I have been reading a lot of this forum and gotten very interested in ripping blurays but there are not a lot of options available here in India and those which are available are almost double the price if not more. Initially I was interested in the latest pioneer drives (BDR xd...

Re: LG BP50NB40 Firmware

BU40N 1.00 is an original firmware, not an MK one. It should be in the "all you need firmware pack" that you have. If not, it is in mine which you can get from the first post of the SDFtool flasher thread. Thanks, and sorry for being so slow Marty. I finally found everything I needed. BU4...

Re: SDFtool Flasher

Sorry i forgot to mention, that I use a external case that converts Sata connection to USB. https://www.amazon.de/dp/B072WJCR9M?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details So I used the USB port on my front and now also on the back and nothing happens when I press start. Yep, your case doesn't sup...

Re: Seeking Recommendations for the Best Pioneer LibreDrive in 2024

Hi! In the next few years I like to transfer my disc-collection (3000+ CDs and 500+ DVDs and BDs and 3D-BDs and 4k-BDs) to HDD and I am looking for the best drive in the Pioneer range to do it. No need of officialy supported UHD because I don't have an Intel SGX capable Computer. Will use MakeMKV f...

Re: LG BP50NB40 Firmware

They are there. We call them MK as it is easier than NM.................. Also, BU40N 1.00 is recommended over BP60NB10 1.00-MK as has better software compatibility. Check out the SDFtool Flasher thread. Thanks! I found those. I assumed the filenames matched the generic firmware names. One more thi...

Re: Pioneer BD-RW BDR-XD07 - Troubleshooting 4kUHD discs not reading

Good morning, Out of the box it shouldn’t be, that much I know. But there has to be a way to flash the XD07 an other pioneer drives, because its getting advertised and sold as such here in this forum. For example, here the XD07TS (the one I have) is getting advertised as “cross flashed” to a XD07TU...

Just purchased a BDR-XS07U with the same firmware. Any updates on flash-ability?

Is there anything I can provide to help with the progress?
Nope.

Re: LG BP50NB40 Firmware

First of all, a big thanks to everyone involved with the UHD Flashing Guide. An absolutely crazy amount of information there. I picked up an LG BP50NB40 drive with SVC code NB50. I have read the entire guide and it seems I first need to go to BP50NB40-NB50-1.03MK, then to BP60NB10-1.00MK. The probl...
